Horse Paddock Mud Control Grid
Horse Paddock Mud Control Grid
The Horse Paddock Mud Control Grid is designed to eliminate mud in horse paddock areas while providing a stable surface. These ultra-reinforced grids are unique in that they do not require a substructure (compacted gravel base) and can be laid directly on the ground. This allows the grids to be moved without damage an reinstalled in another location at a future date. This is ideal for horse owners that are leasing a property and are hesitant to investing in permanent paddock reinforcement. In addition to equestrian and lifestock traffic, the grids are able to support 11,200 pounds per square foot which is adequate for car and truck parking as well.

Mud Control with Minimal Site Preparation
Site prep can be complicated, expensive and labor intensive. With the mud control grid site preparation is greatly reduced as the grids can be placed directly on top of the ground. Leasing a property? Install the grids temporary and take them with you when you move instead of investing into a property that you do not own. Mud control grids not only eliminate mud but also provide a stable surface for horse, livestock and even passenger vehicle parking. Mud management grids are made from 100% recycled plastic so they can't rot and carry a 20 year product guarantee from Hahn Plastics.
"We put down the grids during a very wet spell and now the ground is frozen solid. The horses just love standing on them out of the mud. There are 2 wooden slabs built in which I can attach a full bale net to where needed. I'm going to buy some more for next winter especially for the gate ways.
I've attached a photo showing how they are working great, I leave the scattered hay to give the horses more grip and to give the barefoot horses soft standing especially in the frozen weather."

"We are using the grids for a wash area for the horses. These are really great, heavy duty, and definitely not rubber. They will keep all of us out of the mud when giving baths. I have already recommended the grids to several folks here in Kansas that are looking for mud management systems."

Laying Instructions:
Step 1
Level the ground by flattening bumps and filling holes. Lay down the first row of Mud Control Grids across the full length of the area to be covered.
Important: Leave an expansion gap of at least 1/4” (0.5 cm). Space should also be left between the grids and buildings or edging structures.
Step 2
The second row of grids should be staggered against the first by using a half grid at the beginning. Grids can be easily cut by skill saw.
Cutting: Mud Control Grids are easily cut with skill saws, bench saws, panel saws or jig saws. Other power tools may also be appropriate.
Inserting: When laying down Mud Control Grids, a crowbar or shovel can give helpful leverage - but do not apply too much force. The grids should fit loosely together to avoid high tensions during extreme hot or cold weather.
Step 3
Lay down the second row of grids after the first row has been done. Remember to leave a 1/4” (0.5 cm) expansion gap.
Our Mud Control Grids make it easy to cover even large areas relatively quickly. Although the grids adapt well to uneven ground, level ground gets the best results.
Tip: A substrate like sand can be used to level the grids out. Even after installation, substrate can fill gaps and dips by using a leverage action.
Step 4
Once the grids have been laid out, fill the holes with washed sand or another water-permeable material. For general use, but especially with all-season open stabling, we recommend a finishing layer (e.g. riding arena sand or wood chips) of at least 1 1/4” (3 cm).
